About 6,395 students were admitted into the University of Calabar during the 2014/2015 academic session matriculation ceremony of the institution held last week.
Speaking at the event, the Vice-Chancellor, Prof James Epoke, congratulated the new students, who are among the over 25,000 applicants that chose the university as their first choice during the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
He said that a total of 12,340 scored above 180 in JAMB last year and were invited for the attitude test, through which they were the lucky students to be admitted.
The VC advised them to abide by the school rules and regulation as the university does not tolerate indiscipline.
Prof. Epoke also told the students they must have 75 per cent lecture attendance to be allowed to write examination and stressed that his administration has zero tolerance for examination malpractice and vices that could tarnish the image of the school.
Also speaking, the Registrar of the institution, Mr Moses Abang, called on the fresh students to make good use of the school library to equip themselves academically.
